Pumpkin and White Bean Hummus

I came across a recipe for pumpkin hummus in a magazine and lost the recipe. Determined to try it out, I improvised and made my own.

Ingredients:

1 15 oz can of organic pumpkin
1 15 oz can of white beans, drained
2 tbsp tahini
2 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
1 tsp olive oil + a little extra to drizzle on top
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper
1-2 garlic cloves
1 tbsp dried parsley + about 1 tsp for garnish
1 tbsp pepitas (pumpkin seeds)

Directions:

Combine all ingredients except pepitas, dried parsley and olive oil drizzle in a vitamix or food processor. Process or blend until smooth. Add in 1 tbsp dried parsley until mixed in. Put mixture in a serving bowl and drizzle with olive oil and garnish with remaining parsley and pepitas (optional: toast pepitas in a dry skillet first). Serve with veggies or flat bread.
